Less than $5 Middle School Writing Independent Work Packet (by date, oldest first)

Looking to help your students master the passive voice for standardized tests like the STAAR? This 16-page resource is your go-to guide for teaching passive voice with a gradual increase in complexity.

Start with the basics of identifying subjects and verbs in sentences, then progress to understanding direct objects and other key components essential for a full grasp of passive voice. This packet is designed to make learning passive voice engaging and effective.

Included are:

• 5 Pages of handouts to make sure to make sure students understand each part of passive voice.
• Practice pages that progressively challenge students, ensuring they can identify and use passive voice with confidence.
• Exercises in evaluating and revising sentences, crucial for mastering the revising sections of tests.
• 2 editing passages for applied practice, perfect for honing skills in a test-like environment.

Ideal for both classroom use and independent practice, this resource is an excellent tool for students in middle and high school.

Teach your students how to evaluate sentences in revising passages. This is specific to deleting sentences.

While this is a tested skill, students will learn what to look for and evaluate sentences carefully through examining redundant and extraneous sentences. Five practice passages are included with the answer key and rationale. A "teach" page is included for self-guided learning!

INCLUDED: Self-grading Google Form Quiz, Word Doc & PDF!

BUNDLE and SAVE: ELA Test Prep, Study Guide & Activities Bundle
